Is Carlos Davis the answer at nose tackle for the Steelers?

We are well on our way now bringing you part 23 of our 90-part series—assuming the roster does not change before we are complete—which will break down each player of the Steelers current 90-man roster in alphabetical order. This series will encompass many aspects of each players game and their current role with the team. At the end, I’ll give some projected stats as well as their chances to make the 53-man roster.

Let’s take a look at rookie defensive lineman

Likelihood of making the roster

Main roster: Doubtful, Practice squad: Lock
